    Default Sydney Poitier Dead At 94

    RIP.......a decent innings.

    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    R.I.P Sidney.
    Strangely I watched a video clip of him, in Heat of the Night, last night.

    Given his career, he certainly was a trail blazer. RIP Sydney!
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    Yes, Sidney was a great actor, and a shame to see him go. First movie I took my girlfriend to when I was 16? was "They call me Mr. Tibbs" with Sidney Poitier. She was probably only 15 at the time.. she got a bit red faced when they were investigating the crime scene where Joy was murdered...

    Lieutenant, this looks like a new carpet.
    A lot of this loose stuff's lying around.

    - Take some down to the lab.
    - And here, I think, some semen.

    Scrape it.
    Oh, Lieutenant?
    There's some more on the couch.
    There's semen on the spread, Lieutenant.

    - Book it. And run an acid phosphatase.
    - Looks like Joy's had a very busy day.

    Semen everywhere.. LOL
